Florida State placekicker Scott Bentley says he wanted to protect himself from potential charges of date rape when he secretly videotaped a sexual encounter he had with a woman. After she found out about this, Bentley pleaded no contest to illegally recording the encounter. He also admitted showing the tape to three friends so that they would be witnesses to the fact the sex was consensual. Bentley was fined $500 and sentenced to 40 hours on a road crew.
